The Silvertail's optimism pulse 2025.
Seeing as though we now have a thread titled "We are [the] Laughing stock of the NRL" and are sitting a lofty two points above last place, I'm guessing any remaining optimism is down to the effects of prescription medication.- Ron E. Gibbs

The Clean Out 2025 Edition
Yeah, I doubt it's just about one thing as well. I don't know any more than anyone else and can only speculate. But he's clearly unhappy and it's affecting the team. Watching the press conference after the game last night, I actually felt sorry for him, even though I believe the situation he...- Ron E. Gibbs

Wooden Spoon
"Off the boil" is putting it a little too kindly. He is the captain of our club and he seems completely disinterested in doing anything that might help the side to win. He is dragging down everyone around him and seems determined to get Seibold sacked before he himself moves on. It's a total...- Ron E. Gibbs

Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good
I still maintain the greatest crime he committed here were those tan-coloured cowboy boots. I mean, WTF was he thinking?- Ron E. Gibbs

Tom Turbo .. interesting if true
It is indeed a head scratcher. Mentioned in another thread, but I think DCE's shenanigans may be weighing heavily on both Tom and Jake. But that could merely be a manifestation of my own disgust with Cherry and a willingness to blame everything on him:-)- Ron E. Gibbs

The Trbojevic era is over
I know the signs haven't been great for both Jake and Tom for a few years (I'm leaving Ben out of this for now), but their form this season has really fallen off a cliff. Not sure what to put it down to (aside from age and injury, wear and tear), especially considering how good Tommy was for...- Ron E. Gibbs

Post-Game Discussion Titans V Manly [Round 15, 2025]
I have missed the last three games because I have been travelling. And those three weeks have been the happiest I have been all year. Sure, the travel was fun, but not having to watch this sh#t sandwich of a team was the real highlight. No idea what compelled me to watch them tonight, because I...- Ron E. Gibbs

Passion for the club
If that's the only way to remove him as our starting hooker (and it seems like it is), I am all for it.- Ron E. Gibbs

Wooden Spoon
It's the complete lack of fight that terrifies me. They show up and, for some reason, expect a win. And as soon as it becomes clear that they will have to work for it, they give up. For all the speed, for all the "weapons" we supposedly have out there, they are really, really bad at playing...- Ron E. Gibbs

The Clean Out 2025 Edition
After watching that performance from Cherry, I also want him out. What happened to giving his all for the club and his teammates for his final hurrah? Whether he likes it or not, he is the captain of this club. And he was completely disinterested and disconnected out there.- Ron E. Gibbs

Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good
He was always going to be judged on the team's results, and the results this year have been terrible. So really, who's going to be shouting his praises from the rooftops? I feel a little for the guy because the players he's got at his disposal - especially the ones who should be leading the way...- Ron E. Gibbs

We are Laughing stock of the NRL
Our forwards are terrible and our captain checked out months ago. If we don't get the wooden spoon it will not be for lack of trying.- Ron E. Gibbs

Tom Turbo .. interesting if true
I mean, if Tom was selected as the 18th man for Origin, it was a terrible selection - and not just because he was ordinary tonight. He's been well below par all year, and nowhere near full fitness at any stage. So, yes, he should not have had to make the choice between club and state because he...- Ron E. Gibbs

F**k me, I wish the players at least would show some passion for the club. Not on the cards, apparently.- Ron E. Gibbs

The Clean Out 2025 Edition
On tonight's "effort" so far, I'd be keeping Jazz Tevaga and no one else. Can we build a team around Jazz Tevaga? [And even though that may sound like a joke, it's really not. He's the only one who's looked like he actually wants to be there.]- Ron E. Gibbs

Game Day: Titans V Manly [Round 15, 2025]
Most disappointing thing is the complete lack of leadership on the field. After that, it's the complete lack of desire to compete. Cherry looks like he has either forgotten how to run or just doesn't care. Haumole is having another one of those games where he is taking the wrong option every...- Ron E. Gibbs

Game Day: Titans V Manly [Round 15, 2025]
Yes, we finally have some consistency. But really, we were always more likely to be consistently bad than consistently good. Which way to the Dark Mode thread again? There is zero fight in this team.- Ron E. Gibbs

Lehi Hopoate
I love Turbo but understand this completely. Having Turbo in your team means you need to carry a back on the bench or be prepared to re-shuffle your backline (which never works out well: see the Newcastle game last week) at any time. It's always a risk. It comes down to whether or not you...- Ron E. Gibbs

Game Day: Titans V Manly [Round 15, 2025]
Dream scenario: We put 60 on them, Des is given the full support of the Board on Monday, is sacked on Wednesday, and begins legal proceedings against the Titans on Thursday. Nightmare scenario: We get out to an early lead, look like a capable NRL team, but are pulled back just before half time...- Ron E. Gibbs

Pre-Game Titans V Manly [Round 15, 2025]
Yeah, even though our win-loss, win-loss pattern suggests a win, I don't have a good feeling about this one. If the opposition decides they might also want to win the game, we will struggle. Usually you'd say, "It's not about the other team, it's about us", but I'm not so sure with this current...- Ron E. Gibbs
